Re: Threads VS. The Day After

Yeah, I am going to have to jump on the Threads bandwagon. TDA was all fine and well, at the time, and the commercial breaks, and the showing on two different nights, actually works in its favor. Trying to sit through it all as if it were a single entity... shoot me. In the head. With a gun. A BIG gun... dull, dull, dull....

Re: Threads VS. The Day After

Threads just may be the most frightening science fiction horror film of all time because it is entirely plausible.

The Day After was a Hollywood nuclear soap opera.

To God There Is No Zero. I Still Exist.

Re: Threads VS. The Day After

Threads. Shocking, brutal, horrifying, even by today's standards.

The Day After was way too Hollywood. The special effects weren't used effectively as they were in Threads. The skeletons of people being shown though the bodies as they were caught up in the blast was really corny, whereas Threads showed people melting and burning when they were caught up in the blast.

They call me the wanderer.

Re: Threads VS. The Day After

Threads for sure- really disturbing.

Re: Threads VS. The Day After

Threads.

It's ending showed darkness and despair, what it would really be like.

The Day After, while being entertaining and quite a production for a TV movie, didn't match the pathos and suspense of Threads, plus, they had to have an ending with hope in it, Hollywood style.

Re: Threads VS. The Day After

I'm going to say the Day After, that one freaked the hell out of me, just thinking about having to live like that, *cringe and shudder*, no, given a choice, I'd be out in the front yard hoping to be smack in the middle of ground zero when the missiles hit.

Re: Threads VS. The Day After

Threads, it's more realistic.

Who can take you higher than a twin peak mountain blue?

Re: Threads VS. The Day After

Threads was a much darker more realistic film.
